[Verse]
Eb Ab Eb                          Ebsus4        Ab 
■  ■  ■  A heart on the run keeps a hand on the gun
          Ebsus4 Eb    
You can't trust  anyone
                                Ab  
I was so sure what I needed was more
                       Eb 
Tried to shoot out the sun
             Cm                    Ab  
Days when we raged we flew off the page
                Eb  
Such damage was done
                             Bbsus4   Ab  
But I made it through 'cause somebody knew
                Eb     
I was meant for someone
                                Ab 
So girl leave your boots by the bed
                      Eb  
We ain't leaving this room
                           Ab  
'til someone needs medical help
                 Eb   
Or the magnolias bloom


[Chorus]
     Fm7          Ab                      Ebsus4      Cm  
It's cold in this house and I ain't going out to chop wood
Eb Bbsus4   Eb     Bbsus4      Ab    
So cover me up and know you're enough
              Eb  
To use me for good


[Intro]

[Verse]
Ab Eb                                                 Ab   
■  ■  Put your faith to the test when I tore off your dress
            Eb     
In Richmond on high
                                      Ab   
But I sobered up and I swore off that stuff
             Eb  
Forever this time
                    Cm  
And the old lover's sing
                  Ab                Eb      
I thought it'd be me who helped him get home
    Eb              
But home was a dream
              Ab                 Eb   
One I'd never seen 'til you came along


[Chorus]
                              Ab 
So girl hang your dress up to dry
                      Eb  
We ain't leaving this room
                              Ab  
'til Percy Priest breaks open wide
              Eb   Fm     
And the river runs through
    Ab                              
And carries this house on the stones
                Cm       
Like a piece of driftwood
Eb              Bbsus4      Ab    
Cover me up and know you're enough
              Eb  
To use me for good

         Eb                    Ab    
So cover me up and know you're enough
              Eb  
To use me for good
                            Ab    
Cover me up and know you're enough
              Eb   Ab Eb
To use me for good ■  ■
